Turning off a child object in Canvas, applying changes to prefab, then turning on again breaks it's layout

uGUI

-

This is happening only when an object with TextMeshPro components are used in the Canvas.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open QA's attached project
2. Open scene "Main"
3. Select "Background" under Canvas\ComplexPrefab in the Hierarchy
4. Disable it and apply changes to prefab
5. Enable "Background"

Expected result: Layout stays unchanged
Actual result: Layout completely messes up
